Alternative Nation – Kenny Mayne Of ESPN Talks Pearl Jam

Jeff Gorra of Alternative Nation has interviewed Kenny Mayne of ESPN about Pearl Jam’s influence on the network.

Here is an excerpt:

This coming Saturday, the world of Seattle sports and music will combine in the form of a friendly flag football tournament. Its purpose is to raise money for the great Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America, and of course, have a little fun. Kenny Mayne, most recognizable from ESPN, will be defending his title as part of team Pearl Jam. Mayne is a Seattle native (who played Quarterback for UNLV) and also happens to be a huge fan of music with Pearl Jam topping the list. Alternative Nation recently had the chance to speak with Mayne about the upcoming CCFA flag football event, in addition to examining how Pearl Jam’s music so perfectly pairs with the world of professional sports.
